  1. Wow that's terrible as far as play time. 12ish hours would be decent enough imo but not less than that. My current mouse is getting in the mid to high 20s.
  2. Interesting, I only had mine a few days before going to the G730 but I did not have that problem I don't think. I used mine on only one charge.
  3. When you move it on desk top it will sometimes flip out and the curser will be stuck to the top of the screen. If you pick the mouse up for a few seconds and set it back down it will go back to normal. Also in games it creates a bad stutter and makes games unplayable. Seems like it’s disconnecting or something. Tried the dongle in different USBs with no luck. I tried everything to get the firmware to go through. It never goes past 0% and then on the bottom left side I get a warning saying the update failed. Hope that helps and good luck to you guys.
  4. Taking it back today after work. Hopefully they clean it up but after fighting with firmware and the mouse jumping around on me last night I decided to just move on. I usually stick with Logitech but I'm always willing to give the underdog a chance. Just didn't work out this time.

And by the way neither of those are mine....I'll give it more time first. Also both mentioned stuttering and losing a connection and I have not see that particular problem.
  6. Please let us know your thoughts when you get a chance.
  7. So I want to give my opinion of this mouse after using it for a couple hours last night in games. First off it feels decent in the hand…medium weight imo. I’m more of a palm grip person myself and imo that’s what it’s really built for. Glides well enough enough…no issues there. Build quality is decent. I wasn’t blown out of the water but there is nothing wrong with it either. I think most mice feel somewhat cheap but it’s expected unless you want a heavy mouse. Tracking is pretty good. I stick to about 5500 DPI and it performed well other than every now and then it would jump around. Didn’t happen often and seemed to correct itself by picking it up but it’s still a bit annoying. The buttons are a mixed bag for me. Left and right clicks are fine and what you would expect. The middle wheel imo could use a little work. It’s a bit harder to press than I would prefer and it feels a loose to me as well. It’s not a deal breaker but I can’t say it’s my favorite either. Now the side buttons….personally I’m not crazy about the placement. To me they need to be pulled towards the back of the mouse more for my grip. I can’t reach the side button closest to the front of the mouse at all unfortunately. And if you were to keep your hand where you were able to reach all the buttons on the side then your finger on the wing/rest on the right side of the mouse would hang off. It’s really a strange design imo. As it is I’m able to keep my finger on the right attachment without it hanging off but can’t reach one of the buttons on the left side. I realize this is my personal grip and opinions will be a mixed bag here but that won’t change the fact that if you have a grip that reaches all the side buttons, the attachment / finger rest on the right side doesn’t really work well. The lighting is nice…not much to say here really. Can’t speak for the battery life yet as I have only used it for a couple hours. Software is a mixed bag imo. At first I could not understand how to assign buttons but after a couple youtube videos I got it. I still think it’s a bit odd and not overly user friendly but after a little time it’s not terrible either. So I still have not been able to get the firmware to update….not sure what that’s about. So this I my personal conclusion of this mouse. It’s not bad but it’s not great either. I think better software may have helped me accept some of the issues that will probably be ironed out in time. But between mediocre mouse wheel, poor button placement, curser jumping and software issues it’s just a lost opportunity to pick up new fans for Corsair. They seem to really be trying to step up in the gaming peripherals department but this is just not how you do it. Go all in or get out because charging $80 for an unpolished mouse in this market just isn’t going to cut it. I’m unsure if I’ll keep it at this point….I have a week or two before my deadline on returning it. Honestly that Logitech 903 is looking like the better option but I’ll give this one a bit more time first. Again this is just my opinion…
  8. Hopefully the jumping around won't happen again. Hope they jump on fixes really quick or this will be going back.
  9. Thanks for the update. Yea I did have some jumping around last night but after I turned it off and back on it seemed to go away so I figured it was maybe something to do with the firmware that didn't go through or some little glitch. Looks to me like Corsair didn't polish this too well before putting it out which is too bad honestly. What they deserve is for people to return the product. You just don't put out an unfinished product. Really aggravating because the mouse has a lot of potential. Very disappointing.
  10. I'm curious if you have any luck with the firmware update. Also if you get a chance please explain to keybinding.
  11. So I really like this mouse so far but dang the software is terrible! First off it keeps telling me I have a firmware upgrade but it won’t upgrade. It starts to upgrade then disconnects from the software and never comes back. I thought maybe it’s just really slow so I let it go over night but sure enough same thing….needs to update but it won’t. And seriously what’s with the terrible button assigning process? I still haven’t figured it out and I even watched videos on youtube for other mice that use the same software. But it’s different with this mouse…there is no “save” button on the bottom right side of the screen after creating an “action”. I even completely uninstalled the software suite (I use it for my Corsair headset as well) and reinstalled it but still have the same issue. So….any help would be great.
